A Parrot 100 Years Old.

"My parrot is 100 years DID," said
Erastus Judd, living at No. Cos Elm
street; 81 have had him for thirty years,
and my father had him about forty years.
'Old Putnam, as we call him, used to be-
long to my grandfather, Seth Judd, who
lived at Shelburne Falls, Massachusetts,
The old gentleman got him from a sailor
in Boston. | have family letters dated
in 1890, in which odd Putnam is re-
ferred to as IA prettie bird, whiche hath

not see that the parrot is not as young as
ever. He is very docile, and he talks as
cleverly as a child of six. His plumage
is still bright, but his sight has failed
him somewhat. The way to tell the age
of a parrot is to count the rings on his
claws. A new ring or (wrinkle) comes
every tenth year. 'Old Putnam has
nine of these rings and a starter for the
tenth. - Chicago Ne6s.

A Smart Dog.

A lady living on tie north side is the
owner of very sagacious Newfoundland
dog called Don. The other day Don,
who quite frequently goes to the grocery
or market for his mistress, was sent after
a basket of eggs. AS he was returning
home, carrying his basket with proud,
dignified air, he met dog against whom
he evidently he had an old grudge He
set his burden down carefully on tne walk {;
then giving a bark of. challenge started
after his enemy on dead run. A friend
of his mistress, who witnessed this pro-
ceeding, picked up the basket and car
ried it to its proper destination. Mean
while, D$n, having vanquished his foe,
returned to the spot where he had left
his eggs. On discovering that they had
disappeared, he ran around frantically,
trying to find them. Finding his effort
vain, he sat down and lifted up his voice
in howl of anguish, as visions of his
mistress's whip, or, at least, the loss of
his dinner, crossed his mind. Suddenly
h0 started for home at brish trot.
Sneaking out into the back yard, he
picked up an old discarded basket that
lay in one corner of the yard and carried
it in and deposited it at the feet of his
mistress. He has been taught that when
he goes to the grocery for any article they
do no happen to have, to return and give
a succession of sharp barks. This he pro
ceeded to do, as if TO say: "They were
out of eggs to-day. - Chicago Journal

FARM AND GARDEN.
Bran for Horse Feed.

Bran is so light that it is popularly
believed there is little substance or value
in il. In warm mashes for cows it gives
great increase in the milk yield, as
every farmer knows Most Of them
account for this, however, by the belief
that milk is so largely water, and that
the water which cows drink with the
bran is mainly responsible for the in
creased supply of milk. But the sub
stance in both milk and bran is greatly
underestimated. Milk, even after its
cream is removed, is very nourishing
food, and its nutriment is of the kind
that the bran is peculiarly adapted to
supply. 1t supplies the proteine which
appears in the albumen of milk. Pre-
cisely the same kind of materials are re-
quired to give strength to working
horses. Those who feed bran to horses
largely are most in favor of it. One of
its advantages is in keeping the horse
from becoming constipated on dry feed
and grain. 1t is a cheap and valuable
feed for horses at any time, and especially
while changing their coats in the Spring.

Training Hcifers.

The training of heifers for their duties
in the dairy should be a constant care of
the dairyman. Vicious animals, which
kick, hold up their milk, suck them
selves, and practice the other usual vices
of disordcrly cows are all made so by
want of, or misdircctcd, training. The
first lesson the calf learns should be af-
fection for its owner, fearlessness, and
docility. Having never been maltreated
it has no sense of fear and accepts the at
tentions of its owner without alarm. Re-
cciving nothing but kindness and food
from him, it is always ready to meet him
with cagerncss, and soon learns to come
at his call. Its natural instincts are even
readily controllable because its acquired
docility accustoms it to give way to the
management of its owner and it never
practices those troublesome vices which
are lntolerable in dairy 1t becomes ir
every respect a domcsticated ANIMAL and
to attain this result, with all the comfort
and advantages it itinvolveS, should be the
present care of the dairyman whose crop
OF calves is now being harvested. Kind
ness and gentleness in the owner are in
dispensable to these virtues in his cattle.

Selection I'm Rreedinn

The coupling of two animals can not.
OF atsef, produce qualities to a degree
greater than the sum of that to which
they exist in the animals and their ances-
tors. The breeding of animals can create
excellence only by addition and holding
the same. In the true sense of the term.
qualities in animals are created only bv
environment. For breeding to make any
improvement, there must first be one su-
perlor animal; and its superiority can
come only of more favorable conditions
surrounding it. Hence improvement is
made along two lines: BY surrounding
animals with favorable conditions and
by selection in breeding. The first pro-
daccs in individuals greater merit than
IS possessed by those animals not so
happily situated; the second combines
and holds this merit. The animal OF
superior merits not only has more good
points than the average animal, but it
has fewer bad points; and when two
superior animals are selected and bred.
their merits are doubled and their defects
are divided as compared with the merits
and faults of animals reproduced in their
offspring. 1t is plain that selection in
breeding can accomplish nothing, unless
the animals are first surrounded by un-
usually favorable conditions. On the
other hand, favorable environment is Of
ilttle value without selection in breeding,
Tor the good results produced by it may
be lost by each animal. There will be nc
aggregation and retention of merit.
Hence the two must go hand in hand.

A correspondent of the Country Gentle
man writes that he has found an easy,
safe and eiectual remedy for the apple
tree bark louise which is described as fol-
lows: - L found that to remove insects
from my English mastiff, a little sulphur
or mercury in his blood was effective.

that soft soap was effective TO a certain
extent, but only, as inferred, through

ously affected with the bark louise, |
bought a can Of concentrated poash and
dissolved it in four gallons of warm
water, and then, with an old paint
brush, ! applied the strong liquid to the

tree, and in three days not a louise could
be seen even upon the highest branches.
"The same remedy will be found a sure
cure for the yellows of peach tree. l
have tried it several times and have
never failed. One of my neighbors, as a
remedy for yellows, used to bore holes in
his peach trees and then filed the holes
with sulphur. This was remedy as de-
structive as heroic, but I knew that the
sulphur could only prove effective by be-
ing dissolved and then absorbed by the
sap, and l also knew that this could be
more effectually done by washing the
tree with a solution, and having il alb

The Pigeon Post.

The general notion that all that has to
be done in forwarding a despatch by
pigeon is to catch the bird, tie a letter to
its leg, and then lberate it, is utterly
fallaciOus, as the method of attaching
the message is of great importance. Be
sides, to be of much service, the bird
must have been thoroughly trained,
otherwise, if the distance to be traversed
be great, the pigeon will in all probahil-
ity lose its way, as it depends more upon
observation than anything else for
guidance in its flights. Prior to the
siege of Paris the method of af1ixing the
message to the bird had not received that
attention which it demanded, and conse-
quently many dispatches were lost in
transit. At first the message was merely
rolled up tightly, waxed over to protect
it from the weather. and then attached to
a feather of the birds tail. But it was
soon found that the twine which kept
the missiye in its place cut or damaged
the paper, and therefore, in order to pro-
tect it from being pecked by the pigeon
and from being injured by wet, etc, the
despatch was inserted in a small goose
quill two inches in length. The quill
was then pierced close to each end with a
red-hot bodkin, so as not to split it, and
in the holes waxed silk threads were in
serted 10 affix it to the strongest tail
feather. BY attaching the message to
this part of the birds body its flight was
not in any way interfered with. - Corn

Facts About Comets.

1t is fact worth noting that no comet,
so far as is known, has ever come in con
tact with the earth, or mingled its sub
stance with the earth's atmosphere. The
nearest approach ever observed was
Lexell's comet of 1870, which approached
within /, 1,40Q90 miles of the earth, and
subtended an angle of two degrees twenty
three minutes, the largest apparent dia-
meter yet observed in any comet. 1t has
not been seen since 1870, though an orbit
was computed for it of only five and a
half years, and astronomers are of the
opinion that perturbation by Jupiter may
have changed its orbit to one Of longer

JOSIAH Hoopes says in the New York
Tribune: Good stable manure thoroughly
rotted IS the best invigorator for grapes !;
whether organic fertilizers are best for
health and longevity of the vine is an
other question. Application of bones to
the grape-border is of greatest import
auce, as careful examination of the roots
will prove. Ground or broken bone is
preferable to the material in an unbroken
condition, as it allows of q more eEaI,
distribution and hastens disisS--sx4yh.
Grape roots, however, will push q long
distance IN Straight line, to obtain this
much-coveted food. Some years since,
in removing vine, it was found that
the roots on one side were much stronger
than the Others, and curiosity as to the
cause instigated a careful search for the
eXtremlties or feeding -rootlcts. After
several feet had been uncovered the
bones of dead animal were unearthed.
but they were so completely covered
with perfect network of small fibres as
to be almost indistinguishable.
These rootlets had penetrated into
every crack or inequality of the bones,
which evidently had been of great service
as food for the plant Beyond question
Iron in the soil is of great benefit for
coioring the fruit. Iron filings and
turnings answer an excellent purpose,
and the effect may be noticeable the first
season after application. Above all else
the sweepings of blacksmith shop have
given excellent results, as we then secure
manure in concentrated form and of a
variety of constituents-the horse-drop-
pings, hoof-parings, iron filings, etc,
combine to form powerful fertilizer.
Perhaps no other plant is more quickly
benefited by the contents of the wash
tubs every week. 1t is a mild solution
Of potash and appears to be greedily alb
sorbed at once. A plentiful allowance OF
wood-ashes forked in the soil in sprino
pays well in the crop of fruit. 1t may
not destroy mildew on the foliage. a.
